Floxy Akhuetie (Environmental Studies)

Floxy Akhuetie moved from Nigeria to Kingston to pursue her Master’s in Environmental Studies. Reflecting on this move, she says: “It was a big adjustment. The environment and the style of communication are different from back home.” Of this challenging experience, she claims that the key to navigating the difficult periods comes from finding an equilibrium between the academic and the extracurricular: “I try to strike a balance because it’s different from where I’m coming from.”
